«The names and connections, at this time,
of the bitterly opposing enemy are:
1) Psychiatry and psychology
(not medicine).
2) The heads of news media who are also directors of
psychiatric front groups.
3) A few key political figures in the fields of "mental
health" and education.
4) A decline of monetary stability caused by the current planning of bankers who are also directors of
psychiatric front organizations would make us unable to function.»

«The way to redefine
a word is to get the new definition repeated as often as
possible. Thus it is necessary to redefine medicine, psychiatry and
psychology downward and define Dianetics and Scientology upwards. This, so far as words are concerned, is the
public opinion battle for belief in your definitions, and not
those of the opposition. A consistent, repeated effort is the
key to any success with this technique of propaganda.»

«My favorite part of this interview was
when Cruise equated psychiatrists to drug dealers. “You know
what? I’m sure drug dealers on the street, in some way, they
are making money. That’s what I equate it to. Here is the
thing: you have to understand, with psychiatry, there is no
science behind it. And to pretend that there is a science
behind it is criminal” (2). In Cruise’s eyes, there are a lot of us criminals, including the 38,000 members
of the American Psychiatric Association (APA), who have issued several
statements disagreeing with many of Cruise’s exhortations about the mental
health field. I suppose now would also be an appropriate time to mention
my particular conflict of interest — I am the daughter of a
psychiatrist/neurologist. That said, my father, and most
responsible physicians, are well-trained scientists who do
not run around willy-nilly dispensing controlled substances
nor filling irresponsible prescriptions to, in Cruise’s
words, “drug the piss” (2)
out of their patients.»

Scientology critics wish
Jeremy Perkins, a schizophrenic, had been treated with the
proper medication. But his scientologist mother treated him with
vitamins. Scientologists are taught that psychiatrists are evil,
thus it is unlikely they will seek proper treatment when they need
it.

«Anyways, I spent years trying to get off
of the medications I needed, unsuccessfully. I went back on
the medications I needed, as my Mother had pointed out, "No,
Dianetics won't fix it! Tory, they're going to KILL you!" I
had fallen in the shower and broke my front teeth, and was
losing my memory daily. Finally I agreed to return to taking my medications. I spent
years and years and years being looked down on, Just as Tom did the other day,
by Scientologists who thought they knew better.»

Tom Cruise is being a good scientologist: they believe
all psychiatrists are evil, they are the ones to hate, and
he is certainly going along with that... According to a central
doctrine of Scientology, psychiatrists were key allies of
Xenu, a galactic
ruler that staged a coup 75 millions years ago...

Amazing... Tom Cruise, an actor and an high-school drop-out,
says that there is no science behind psychiatry. The irony is
that L. Ron Hubbard failed to validate Dianetics and Scientology
as a science, even though he claimed relentlessly that it was
all based on hard science (something the Church of Scientology
still claims today).
Hubbard also claimed that he was one of the first
nuclear physicist in
the world, an assertion that has been
debunked since a
long time now.
